(...) LUCKY!! Where do you live?? When did you get it??? I have so many questions! Is it worth the price? Is it good? LOL! Okay I will stop and wait until someone replies or when it is available at Shop@Home. Steve M. (21 years ago, 8-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic)

(...) That's awesome dude. How did you get your hands on one so early? Is there a second model? What can it do? (...) Hey thanks, I can't wait for those pictures. If I have to wait another day i'll go mad (call me impatient). Thanks again Allan. (21 years ago, 8-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic)

(...) <snip> (...) I'm definitly going to order one of these--looks like it could be one of the finest technic sets since the space shuttle. What I did notice, after looking at the inventory, is that there is 10 cylinders, 2 pumps, but no air (...) (21 years ago, 9-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: Pictures and NEW BRICKS from 8455 Backhoe Loader and 8454 firetruck
 
(...) Wow, where/when can I get one of these sets? It's as if all the other ideas I had for my 8862 set but never got round to implementing have been brought to light. I especially like the pneumatic rotation of the backhoe - mine used a horribly (...) (21 years ago, 9-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic)

(...) There is no airtank, but if you take out the engine, you may put an air tank in there... That's the good thing about LEGO, you can do what you want... Kim Andersen (21 years ago, 9-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic)

(...) The link doesn't seem to work! It takes me to a page that says "This folder has not yet been made public." Can someone explain this? I have to see the pics! Max (21 years ago, 9-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Everything that is uploaded has to be "approved" first, before it is shown to the public. Now this approval is just to see if the pictures are Lego-related and are okay to be viewed by everybody, including children. When you add one picture (...) (21 years ago, 9-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: Pictures and NEW BRICKS from 8455 Backhoe Loader and 8454 firetruck
 
(...) I think it is too. I like the yellow color a lot. I think I'll get myself two - one for parts and the other just to build and display. The firetruck is also cool. Just have to have one. I can hardly wait until they are released over here. If (...) (21 years ago, 10-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic)

(...) These new pneumatic pistons look like they would be hard to merge together into a linear dual piston configuration. So much for easy creations of logic gates. The new switches look very easy to work with though. Kevin (21 years ago, 10-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: 8455 Backhoe Loader, is in the house...
 
(...) wOw! I would LOVE to grab that model! An all-pneumatic backhoe! Imagine what it would look like beside the old 8862 backhoe. I hope it is not too expenceive... Chris Pritchard (21 years ago, 11-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic)
